Status: None => Need Info

Follow-up Comment #7:
USB key repositories are a good argument. I've actually done that, though
not with such a large repository. Compression built into CVS would be more
portable than most compressed file systems too, I expect and not very
complicated to implement. Backwards compatibility might be an issue, but if
files were being compressed individually (*,v -> *,v.gz), then conversion
into a version that worked with older and third party versions of CVS would
be fairly simple and possible using third party tools.
If someone submitted a patch for this, I would consider it.
